My friend Dev and I invited some of our friends and
spoke to a few strangers on the streets of Singapore and got them to
write 1 item from their bucket list. We then took their photos and this is the result.

Here is the elevator pitch we used for this project.

"Have you ever postponed buying something close to your heart? Have you
ever looked at someone and said "I would love to be that guy"? Have you
ever wanted to go skydiving but you thought that is for that flamboyant
kid from your school's athletics team? Have you ever danced like crazy
inside your head in a club but not moved an inch for real because you
never learned tango growing up as a kid?

What is on your bucket list? What is it that is close to your heart, you
always wanted to do it, but you never could? We are sure there are a
lot of things on the 'before I die' list. Time to pull out that list and
tell us one thing that is written in big bold letters on your bucket
list."December 2010

The idea was to go out and get people to write their 2011 resolution on a piece of paper and take their picture with it. For me, I recently bought a camera and my 2011 resolution is to learn how to use it better.

The result is New Year Singapore and a lot of fun along the way. I hope this acts as a photo reminder to everyone who was part of it and I hope for myself that I learn from mistakes made here and get better at photography.

If there are other cool ideas you have for photo projects, leave me a message here and let's go do it together.
